Her favorite mantra is "Knowledge is Power".
Heidi believes in empowering women and she feels blessed that she is able to work with such amazing women who are ready to change their lives! Heidi has had a vision for this school for years and is extremely excited to see it finally come to fruition.

Shay Moree-Dew, LMT, LE
Senior VP of Operations
Shay has called the Low Country her home for over 35 years. When she is not at the Advanced Aesthetics Academy, you will most likely find her on the May River. With a Bachelor's degree in Sociology and a working background in business management, she decided to further her love of learning by seeking licensure in both Massage Therapy (15+ years) and Esthetics (7+years). And with that, found her true passion; managing all the various aspects of Spa industry.
She has opened and/or owned multiple spas in the area, maintained a thriving medical massage practice and held positions of leadership in several high- end luxury resort spas. We feel very honored and blessed she is a part of our team.
